We enjoyed our stay at Kings Canyon resort.
Disappointed that the restaurant was closed.
When paying $500+ per night don’t expect to have just pub meals for dinner. Staff were excellent

Would recommend but just for one night
Room was okay for one night- tired paintwork but clean enough and toilet block and showers were clean with plenty of hot water in the showers
The bar was great- good value happy hour and large selection of food. Food was a little dry but okay.
Had the buffet breakfast which was good value
Would recommend if passing through and need a place for one night
We stayed in the basic room- double bed but not en suite

We stayed in a lodge. It was basic and clean, but it seems that most of the accommodation uses onsite toilets and showers. Fine for youngsters, but not so great for more mature travellers who need the facilities several times a night. I feel that this should have been made clearer in the literature, prior to booking, especially for overseas travellers who are not familiar with the place. Such a contrast to Yulara which was super. Basically it is a camp site. However, the food was excellent and also the bar staff.

Long walk to amenities
The accomodation is set far back from reception and the bar. Its a very long hot walk to get to both.
Otherwise the room was perfect. Really modern and new

Wrong advice
The staff does not really know it’s way around and either can’t give you directions at all or they give you wrong ones. We ended up driving 30 minutes in the wrong direction.

The accommodation and service for check in and check out are awesome and top quality. Questions and concerns were answered with no caveats. They either provide or not. So simple. Love the walkable distances to the dinning cafe and bar options as well as the small hiking areas to the Light Towers and back. Lots of the areas are secluded and has an outdoor feeling even though you’re staying in 5 star top notch hotel and accommodations. Will be staying again in the near future.
